I recently had the exceptional opportunity to utilize LegalShield's services, particularly through the impressive Friedman and Thrust Law Firm, and I can confidently assert that my experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment I reached out, the entire process was seamless and efficient, alleviating the stress often associated with legal matters.

One of the most appealing aspects of LegalShield is the unbeatable accessibility it offers. Their subscription model empowers you to consult with a qualified attorney whenever you need, eliminating the fear of unexpected legal fees. Knowing that I could reach out for guidance without worry and that my assigned Attorney was always responsive made a significant difference in my confidence while navigating my legal issue.

The Friedman and Thrust Law Firm and, most importantly, my Attorney, Matthew Hall, truly stood out for their professionalism and expertise. During my initial consultation, the Attorney I worked with took the time to delve deeply into my situation, thoroughly explaining my options and potential outcomes. This level of attention not only informed my decisions but also gave me a solid foundation to move forward with clarity.

Another major highlight was the firm's commitment (my Attorney) to communication. Whenever I had questions, my emails were answered promptly, and phone calls were returned without ANY delay. This responsive approach made me feel valued as a client and reinforced their dedication to providing top-notch service.

I wholeheartedly recommend LegalShield, particularly the Friedman and Thrust Law Firm, and the Attorney I worked with, Matthew Hall, for anyone seeking reliable and effective legal assistance. Their combination of a practical subscription model, expert guidance, and outstanding customer service positions them as a leader in the legal landscape. I am overwhelmed with joy.

Reflecting on my journey from the past, I wish I had discovered this invaluable service sooner, as it would have saved me significant time and anxiety in managing my legal challenges. Whether you are faced with a pressing legal issue or desire the peace of mind that comes from having a legal expert at your side, LegalShield is a decision you won't regret. If you need to select a firm and an Attorney, I highly recommend Friedman and Thrust Law Firm and specifically Matthew Hall. I reserved the time to write this, and I am glad I can do it to help someone have the peace of mind and benefit from the services I benefited from.

Quick answer and them some
December 15, 2025

I called about a concern regarding the documents I signed and received when I sold property. The attorney was familiar with the agency and its representatives. I was given information along with the steps I would need to take.
The suggested steps were effective and I was satisfied with the outcome for the most part. I was truly impressed by the wisdom as well as the legal advice I was given.

We used Legal Shield in preparing our Last Wills and our Power of Attorney's paperwork. Legal Shield guided us step by step through each process and was there to answer our questions and even bring up areas that they thought we might need a fuller understanding of. They were great and saved us from making mistakes by helping us clarify what it was that we were seeking. Now we have the peace of mind that comes from having those items in place thus ensuring our children will not be faced with wondering what we had intended as we approach end of life issues.
We highly recommend Legal Shield!
